    This sort of problem is constant and it runs across all marques.

    It would cost no more to have produced a correct sticker.

    I see this all the time. A company spends a lot of time and money only to manufacture a part that isn't even close to the original. I can only attribute it to carelessness.

    The problem is even a little worse for the Porsche crowd because we basically have no standards. We have no judging manual. You could take these stickers to a PCA show and not a single person would notice that they're incorrect reproductions. I bet most PCA judges don't even know the hood struts require stickers.

    With the help of Manuel we now have a very accurate version of the decal. We had three dates done to suit my projects

    12/65
    03/66
    08/66

    I have some spares left so if you need some now would be the time to let me know
